Gearing is stock 13/48. I have a FWW...9oz. It helped with the traction but I easily could have gone heavier.

My left hand is whooped after 2 hours of slipping the clutch on trail rides. A lot of the trails out here (WA state) are technical and slippppppery.

What part of Wa? I'm in Port Orchard, and if I had riding buddies, it might make getting my bike ride-ready more of a priority. I know there are tons of trails close to here... like Tahuya State Forest and Camp Speelman... but I havent ridden any of them.

have you thought about trying a 50 or 51 tooth rear sprocket i have a 13/53 and it made a huge difference on the long rooty uphills. way less cluthing. you do loose a little top end but its great in the super tight single trak stuff.

Yeah I've been looking out for a 50T on ebay, but have not tried it yet. First gear is very tall on this bike. Thx for the suggestion........
Just curious what were you running before 13/53?
